New one-way direction on Oso Creek Lake Loop Trail designed to help patrons maintain social distancing

For the health and safety of the community, the City of Mission Viejo is taking steps along the Oso Creek Lake Loop Trail to implement one-way direction starting April 1.
The temporary one-way “clockwise” direction for all bikers, hikers and walkers will be in effect until social distancing guidelines are lifted by state and federal governments.
The move comes amid concerns over a spike in public use and decrease in social distancing, particularly on the Oso Creek Lake Loop Trail along Lake Mission Viejo. The one-way clockwise direction is designed to help patrons adhere to the COVID-19 social distancing guidelines.
Signage and arrows alerting patrons of the change will be installed by noon on April 1.
During this unprecedented time, the City continues to promote COVID-19 health and safety directives while keeping public access available to its open spaces and parks.
